Men's Rugby Sevens WR World Series 2019 - 2020

[NaBUru38 208]

World Rugby wants to fit a 16-team men's tournament and a 12-team women's tournament in 2 days. Therefore, there are no quarter-finals, just Cup semis and place matches for the rest. Absoultely insane.

I credit sevens for really opening up the American market to Rugby. I’d say it’s gotten more popular since it was added to the Olympics.

Do they just come with the rules as they go?? the first 2 tournaments were regular quarters, now suddenly they changed it to just semis? this is such bullshit! now USA because of their 2 bad tournaments will never get out of this, they will always be placed with a top 4 team and not be able to get out of the group

Scotland defeated by the US, then respond by beating Wales

USA showing again how much of a fluke last year was. back to mediocrity

All was set for a NZ win ... 

Very good result for us again though, 2nd tied overall, who would have imagined that one year ago ?

Japan once again invited, the fourth time in four tournament this season ... I don't see no invitational side there  

By the beginning of the new Challenger Series in 3 weeks they'll have had far more elite experience than the other teams, very fair ...

I know the Olympics are approaching but I don't see why it should ever grant privileges
